A. it is very normal for small children to have slightly warm/hot head palms and soles but if the growth of the child is proper no need to worry about the warm head palm and soles.d you have to consider it as fever only if the temperature in the armfpit is 100f or more. the warm head palmds and soles are due to hyperdynamic circulation in these areas which is normal.

A. Generally, a baby's head feels warmer than the body temperature because their thermoregulation system is not properly developed. Thermoregulation is the phenomenon of regulating the internal temperature of the body.
